Hello to the List. As some of you know, I'm writing a book about French Meteorites. The title should be "Les Météorites françaises - Guide pratique" (in english : French meteorites - Practical guide)
The good news is that it may be released before Christmas, making it a nice gift for any meteorite collector or scientist. Also it's in French, it might be of interest for any meteorite collector, including english-speaking people. For example, I'm not a german-speaking man and like to get old german documents (like Chladni's articles) about meteorites. What will be included in this 460 pages book ? - beginner's guide (for anyone beginning in meteorites collecting and hunting) - complete and detailed classification - how to recognize a meteorite ? - all french meteorites (finds or falls, including the latest, Plancy-l'Abbaye and Alby-sur-Cheran) with unique pictures never seen before, old documents, old and latest analysis, museum distribution, bibliography, some maps. Unique old documents which may lead to new meteorite finds in France ! - all french meteorwrongs - most of the french observed meteors or observed falls never recovered (with hints to find them maybe !) - french meteorite or pseudo-meteorite craters - glossary - useful websites - complete Jean-Baptiste Biot text about the L'Aigle fall (1803) I think this book will become a classic most of you will want to own in their library or meteorite collection ! Just write me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you want to be contacted when the book is released (possibility to order it on the web). Price should be reasonable.
